Mixed repertory is always a high point in the season because the artistic director has constructed a menu of shorter programs that offer a lot of something for everyone. The production begins with a world premiere delivered by Orlando Ballet’s own Rehearsal Director Heath Gill who has wowed audiences with his highly charged and imaginative creations “Confronting Genius” and “The Next Big Thing.” Gill’s ability to captivate audiences through an uncanny and clear ability to fuse the best of classical and contemporary dance has established him as one of the country’s most exciting young choreographers.

Love, an intense feeling of deep affection, is the driving force behind our winter repertory program. Each work will explore themes of love, and the swirl of emotions that love calls forth: joy, sadness, empathy, triumph. This program will present the company premiere of “Something to Remember You By” by award winning choreographer Stephanie Martinez, who was commissioned for Joffrey Ballet’s “Winning Works: Choreographers of Color” competition and received the Chicago 3Arts Award in recognition for her work as a female artist of color. Originally created for Tulsa Ballet, we are excited to bring this stunning work to our Madison audience. The program will also present the return of audience-favorite "Guitar Concerto” by Ja’ Malik and the classical virtuosic ballet, “Paquita Suite” staged by Andrea Long.
